In the south part of the Charente, less than one hour from Bordeaux, the ocean and beaches of Royan, and the beautiful towns of Angoulême and Cognac, this is a perfect self-catering holiday property. Set in the grounds of the English owners and sharing a splash pool, it is a restored barn, with plenty of space and lovely oak furniture. The nice lake in Brossac less than twenty minutes drive away has a proper beach that children will love. The larger one of Angoulême is ideal for windsurfing or even waterskiing. Or enjoy a day in Cognac visiting the numerous distilleries or take a trip on a boat on the River Charente.
